Expression of granzyme A in human polymorphonuclear neutrophils.
Article in Immunology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) are the first line of defence against invading pathogens. They contain a multitude of antimicrobial and potentially cytotoxic substances packed in granules and secretory vesicles. Here, we show that granzyme A (GzmA) is constitutively expressed in human PMNs, but not in the promyelocytic cell line HL-60, by performing flow cytometry, western blot, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and quantitative polymerase chain reaction. To further track the intracellular localization of GzmA, we performed subcellular fractionation and found GzmA to be present in peroxidase-negative granules. Finally, stimulation with opsonized Escherichia coli or the bioincompatible haemodialysis membrane cuprophane led to up-regulation of GzmA expression at the transcriptional level as well as at the translational level. In conclusion, we provide clear evidence that GzmA is constitutively expressed in human PMNs and can be up-regulated upon stimulation. These findings may also indicate a role for GzmA in PMNs in defence against invading pathogens.
